Make sure that the solar cell
This reduces the efficiency of the solar cell
The LED light bulb cannot be replaced.
The illuminant is not replaceable.
If the illuminant fails at the end of its life, the
entire product must be replaced.

Battery safety information

DANGER TO LIFE!
Batteries are not intended for children. If
accidentally swallowed seek immediate
medical attention.
CAUTION! EXPLOSION
HAZARD!
Never recharge nonrechargeable batteries
and do not short-circuit and / or open any
batteries.
Never throw batteries into fire or water.
Do not exert mechanical loads to batteries.
Risk of battery leaking
In the event of a battery leak, immediately
remove it from the product to prevent dam-
age.
Avoid contact with the skin, eyes and mu-
cous membranes. In the event of contact
with battery acid, thoroughly flush the
affected area with clean water and seek
immediate medical attention.
Avoid extreme environmental conditions and
temperatures, which could affect batteries,
e.g. above radiators / in direct sunlight.
Remove the battery from the product if it is
not going to be used for extended periods.
Risk of property damage
Use only the recommended battery type!
When inserting the battery ensure the cor-
rect polarity! This is indicated on the battery
compartment cover.
If necessary, clean the battery and device
contacts before inserting the battery.
Promptly remove drained batteries from the
product.

The integrated solar cell
verts solar radiation into electrical energy and
stores it in the Ni-MH rechargeable battery. The
product switches itself on when it starts to get
dark. The integrated LED is an energy-saving illu-
minant with a very long life. The burn time de-
pends on the solar radiation, the angle of
incidence of the light falling onto the solar cell
, and the temperature (due to the tempera-
6
ture dependence of the capacity of the re-
chargeable batteries). The ideal situation is a
vertical angle. Given the best conditions, a burn
time of approx. 8 hours can be achieved. The
rechargeable battery will only achieve its maxi-
mum capacity after several charging and dis-
charging cycles.

Note: Ensure that the product stands firmly
in place. Do not use any force when assem-
bling or setting up the product, e.g. hammer
blows. This damages the product.
Note: For the best results, put the product
in a place where the solar cell
posed to direct sunlight for as long as possi-
ble. Do not put the product under bushes,
trees, canopies etc. as this reduces the inci-
dence of incoming sunlight.
Position the product in such a way that the

Note: Make sure that the solar cell
not near another source of light such as
street or garden lighting as the product will
otherwise not switch itself on automatically
when it starts to get dark.
